Custom boots reworked - 2nd trip to bootfitter

The main goal of this trip was for the bootfitter to try to straighten the "wall" of the boots, to go up around the arch, because they were very wide there, and my foot collapsed there. 

They seemed better. We also put in my new superfeet insoles.

I went on ice to try to feel the blade alignment. After punching, I had more space for the tongue, that was better, the blister was reasonable but it was not healed so there was pain that I had to ignore. The soles of my feet hurt. I've realized we didn't warm up the super feet insoles, so they must poke. Worrisome... I couldn't hold the forward outside edges...

I went several times on ice after the bootftter adjusted the blade. But it almost felt worst? The boot collapsed again from the heat of my feet... I kept insisting that must be  way to straighten. The bootfitter said he would try to clamp them. 

My hope level: close to desperation...
